| - I've heard so many mixed things about Barrio, so I was hesitant to come here for a night out. I'm glad I decided to put on my big girl pants and ignore everyone else's opinion. The major complaint I've heard is that the tacos come out cold, but everything I ordered came out steaming-hot and fresh. Service was incredibly prompt, and my food was delivered before I stuffed myself full with chips and guac. I'm a fan of plain jane guacamole, but they had several interesting options to fit any palette.
I wound up building two tacos: one soft shelled pork with slaw and chihuahua, and one hard shelled braised beef with pineapple salsa. I have no complaints on the variety or degree of tastiness of the tacos. My only complaint is that the margaritas seem a tad on the sweeter side. It's partially my fault for ordering a fruity mango margarita, but I like that perfect mix of sweet and sour. Each margarita I tried (the mango, marigold, and diablo) seemed lacking on the sour side. Still, all of the drinks are refreshing and satisfying. You cannot beat the quality of food, variety, and attentive service for the price.
